Raspberry Brigantine closes the berry season. It begins to ripen when most of the horticultural crops have already completed their fruiting.

Description of the variety

A mid-late variety tested over the years. Agriculture was bred back in the 70s of the twentieth century by outstanding breeders Kazakov I.V. and Kulagina V.L., but to this day it occupies a leading position not only among amateur gardeners, but also among agro-industrial enterprises. Popularity was achieved due to good frost resistance, drought resistance and survival rate. Bushes feel great both in Western Siberia, the Urals, and in central Russia and in the southern regions.

Ripening terms

Medium late variety, fruit ripening occurs in August-September.

Yield

The brigantine has good marketability indicators. On an industrial scale, berries are harvested using raspberry harvesting equipment. The harvested crop is easy to transport.

Yield indicators are excellent. From one bush, you can collect from 2.2 to 5 kg of berries.

It is highly appreciated by culinary experts. The application is wide. Used for making jams, yoghurts, compotes, jellies, mousses, jams, cocktails, ice cream.

Refers to non-refurbished varieties. Harvest can be obtained only once per season. Maturation is amicable. When the berries ripen, they do not crumble, they remain on the branch until they are picked.

Berries and their taste

Brigantine's fruits are large, with a rich, glossy dark crimson color. The weight of one can reach 3-3.8 g. The shape is rounded-conical, with a slight drop.

On a five-point tasting scale, the score is 3.9 points due to the pleasant sourness present in the taste, as well as the weak aroma. The flesh is quite firm. When thawed after freezing, the berries do not lose their shape and do not flow.

How to choose a raspberry seedling
Due to its unpretentiousness, raspberries live in almost every garden plot. But in order to get tasty berries, you must first plant a healthy and strong seedling. In nurseries, shops and private sellers, you can find a huge assortment of seedlings, but how to determine their quality and be sure of the abundance of fruiting already upon purchase?

Growing features

The culture does not require any special care skills, but there are certain secrets in cultivation. Plants are planted using the trellis method at a distance of up to 2 m between rows and 1 m between shrubs. The support consists of 2 rows (0.5 m wide and 1.5 m high). This method will provide the raspberries with the necessary amount of light and air.

Bushes of medium size, 180-200 cm high, compact, slightly spreading, erect, with powerful upright, slightly thorny shoots, purple-brown, with dense green corrugated leaves.

Watering is moderate, depending on the weather. If there is enough rain, then there is no need to additionally provide the plants with moisture. With a low amount of precipitation, deep irrigation at the root is necessary. Moisture is especially needed during flowering and ripening of berries. Excessive loss of water from the soil is solved by mulching the soil around the bushes.

Site selection and soil preparation

Raspberry prefers fertile soils (loam or sandy loam).The place is chosen sunny, without stagnant water and drafts, quickly warmed up.

The raspberry tree is laid either in mid-autumn or early spring. The soil is prepared in advance by introducing organic and mineral fertilizers (humus, wood ash, river sand, phosphates). However, mineral dressings should not be carried away. Brigantine responds best to organic matter in growth and fruiting.

A plentiful and high-quality harvest in the future depends on the correct technology of planting a raspberry bush. It is necessary to choose the right planting material, determine the location and prepare the site.
Raspberry garter is a difficult and painstaking task. This requires time and imagination. But on the other hand, the benefits from this process are enormous. Thanks to the garter, the fruits ripen more intensively and regularly. Bushes are much less deformed, branches do not break off. After the garter, the berries are better preserved, and the greatest achievement at the same time is the convenience of harvesting.

Pruning

Constant pruning helps to increase the yield. It is held 4 times a year:

  1. March-April - remove all weak and thin shoots;

  2. July - until the flower ovary appears, the shoots are pinched on the main shoot, which will allow the formation of additional buds;

  3. September-October - remove the branches on which the stalks were;

  4. November - the raspberry tree is thinned out, broken, dry and weak shoots are removed.

The raspberry pruning process is an essential and essential part of caring for your garden and the key to harvesting large, juicy berries. Without pruning, raspberry shoots lose their strength and cease to bear fruit. It is very easy to avoid thickening of the raspberry tree: you only need pruning - in the spring, summer and autumn months.
One of the conditions for proper care of raspberries is proper watering. The rules for watering raspberries are the same for all varieties and varieties of this garden plant. Moistening should be carried out if the soil has dried out by 5 cm or more.
One of the most important conditions for growing large and sweet raspberries is timely fertilization. For each stage of development of the raspberry bush, different feeding is required. Fertilizers that are used at the beginning of the growing season of the plant are not suitable during flowering and ripening of berries.
Preparing raspberries for winter is another of the stages of berry care. If you start preparing raspberries for wintering in time, then next year you will get a rich harvest of delicious and sweet berries. Winter preparation activities include pruning, feeding, pest control, watering and shelter.

Diseases and pests

Brigantine has medium resistance to many diseases and pests. But the resilience of a crop depends on the quality of the soil. Strong and robust raspberries are able to resist pests and diseases.

However, some insects can harm the health of the seedlings.

  • Stem fly. Young twigs are striking - they wither, turn black and die off.

  • Stem raspberry gall midge. The larvae feed on young shoots, they can lead to the death of bushes.

  • Raspberry beetle. It feeds on flowers, eating the buds and the first leaves, contributing to the worminess of the fruit.

  • Shoot gall midge. The larvae living in colonies on the stems use the plant for food. From such a neighborhood, the seedling dries up and dies.

  • Spider mite. The reason for its appearance is excessive thickening. The insect infects the leaves, which turn yellow, curl and fall off.

  • Weevil. The most dangerous pest that can destroy almost all future crops by eating flower buds.

The plant can be affected by fungal diseases such as:

  • anthracnose - a fungus that develops as a result of high humidity;

  • purple spot is also a fungal infection that begins to develop after summer rains, the leaves begin to crack, fall off, leading to the death of the plant.

Unfortunately, raspberries, like other plants, do not bypass various diseases and pests. Only armed with the knowledge and the necessary means for this, you can cope with such troubles. To help the plant, it is very important to be able to recognize the disease in time and begin timely treatment.

Reproduction

A new raspberry tree is laid in the fall, using young annual shoots. Brigantine provides the gardener with planting material on its own, launching new shoots from the rhizomes. For reproduction, take healthy seedlings without signs of disease and rot on the rhizome.

It is preferable to use freshly dug seedlings, so the roots will not dry out, having previously shortened the shoots to 50 cm. The holes for planting are prepared in advance (depth 10 cm). Rooted to the level of the root collar, watered abundantly and mulch the soil at the site.

There are many ways to breed raspberries. Raspberries can be diluted with root cuttings, woody cuttings and root cuttings. Regardless of the method of berry propagation, a number of requirements must be observed to ensure the receipt of high-quality planting material.
